Awesome start by Alamgir Kabir! Got both Vaughan and Collingwood out! England are reeling at 3 for 2.

Arright!!! go tigers...this opens up interesting scenarios...the english captain is under pressure...a poor run of form...ahem...

Time to hit the BBC message board and see what they have to say for themselves!!

Arnab · #8 October 16, 2003, 11:11 PM

BBC's messageboard is ridiculous. I think this board is way more mature and has more variety in posts than BBC's 'international' messageboard.

Is talha going to bowl today?! I am looking forward to some sparks from him.

rafiq · #13 October 16, 2003, 11:22 PM

I meant BBC's England message board. The international is full of sicko Pak and indians doing their usual boring thing. Anyway they are closed.

What happened to Talha Jubair - I thought we were playing with 12. Why is he not even in the radar or accompanying the U-19 team?

Zobair · #14 October 16, 2003, 11:25 PM

Amongst the threee pacers in the side I would have thought talha has the greatest pace...should we have opened with him?

rafiq · #15 October 16, 2003, 11:25 PM

Have you guys tried crickinfo - it must be one of those days when you have to walk over to the server and fetch the data yourself (Who was it here that said that?). 3 test matches are on plus our little affair. cricketnext is better at live commentary but no coverage of our match. anyway, got to get some sleep tonight, hope we can do some further damage soon.

Sham · #16 October 16, 2003, 11:25 PM

He is playing in this match. Should get a bowl soon.

That used to be my signature text for some time :P

fwullah · #18 October 16, 2003, 11:39 PM

Is Whatmore magic working on him too?

He used to be somebody who is either too expensive or too defensive - not to take any wickets.

Suddenly he has the courage to stay at the wicket for 23 balls, then he takes 2 early wickets - what the hell is going on with him?

Zobair · #19 October 16, 2003, 11:39 PM

52/2 from 12

tescothick opening up...hit a six...possibly off talha who gave away 7 in the first over. We need to part these two. pronto!

chinaman · #20 October 16, 2003, 11:40 PM

England: 52 for 2 after 12 overs

ME Trescothick: 22
N Hussain: 16

Sham · #21 October 16, 2003, 11:43 PM

I expected this! Sort of like our own first innings, two early wickets and then a big partnership, and a quick one too. Trescothick is looking dangerous. Anyway, we'll see how they play the spinners when they come on.

rafiq · #22 October 16, 2003, 11:43 PM

tareq aziz got smacked for 20 in 2 overs after giving up only 6 in the first 4. and talha went to 7 in his first. 52/2

You mean ....what the magic is going on with him?

Bravo Fahmida! This is the first outrightly positive post from you in a looong while :P Don't be afraid! let it out

rafiq · #25 October 16, 2003, 11:49 PM

isn't there any in bangladesh? are the people in dhaka also having to put up with these slow updates? I thought I would be smart and use internet service on my phone to find faster updates - it's easier than surfing multiple sites on a pc sometimes - but no luck yet! Bd/Eng is at the bottom of the stack - yesterday's scores!
